The Lego Movie (2014)

Wikipedia:

The Lego Movie is a 2014 computer-animated comedy film written and directed by Phil Lord and Christopher Miller from a story by Lord, Miller, and Dan and Kevin Hageman. Based on the Lego line of construction toys, its story focuses on an ordinary Lego minifigure who finds himself helping a resistance stop a tyrannical businessman from gluing everything in the Lego world into his vision of perfection. Chris Pratt, Will Ferrell, Elizabeth Banks, Will Arnett, Nick Offerman, Alison Brie, Charlie Day, Liam Neeson, and Morgan Freeman provide their voices for the film’s main characters. The film was dedicated to Kathleen Fleming, the former director of entertainment development of the Lego company, following her death in Cancún, Mexico, in April 2013.

This movie is one of my favorites that I keep forgetting about. I really need to ear mark this one to rewatch at least once a year or more. I love the idea behind this movie, and yes I know it’s a kid movie and I’m an adult, but family movies are for adults too.

I’ve been playing the Lego video games which led me to the movie. And then I loved the movie.

Ok so the plot does center around the Lego figures…at first. It’s a family movie for a reason, this is actually a father and son movie. It’s cute, and I love the message at the end.

My Rating: ★★★★★
